  As any Windows administrator can tell you, the cost of Proprietary
  Software is greater then the cost of the license.

  <ul>

    <li>Maintenance</li>
    
    <!--(Patches, Upgrades, Troubleshooting)-->

    <li>No Customization</li>

    <!--(You are stuck with what you get)-->

    <li>Customer Service</li>

    <!--(Telephone Help, etc.) -->

    <li>Vendor Lock In</li>

    <!--(Proprietary File Formats are designed to be
        difficult to allow switching)-->

    <li>Compatability</li>

    <!-- (similar to Vendor Lock In, products often fail to play
        nice with other products by different manufacturers) -->
 
    <li>Scalability </li>
 
    <!--(Hotmail was a Unix installation) -->

    <li>Bugs</li> 

    <!-- (Recent problems with MS Office) -->

  </ul>

  <!-- Rerun through this slide and explain how OSS deals w/ these problems -->
